| Discussion | Progressive multiple leukoencephalopathy - A demyelinating disease which results from the reactivation of John Cunningham virus (JC virus) infecting oligodendrocytes in patients with compromised immune systems. - PML occurred in patients with AIDS, typically developing in patients with CD4 counts of 50-100 cells/μL, and is found in approximately 5% of autopsies of patients who died from AIDS # Image findings - CT: Asymmetric low attenuation involving the periventricular and subcortical white matter. - MRI : Multifocal, asymmetric periventricular and subcortical T2/FLAIR high SI, T1 hypointense lesions without enhancement, the subcortical U-fibers involvement with a predilection for the parieto-occipital area. : Peripheral patchy diffusion restriction particularly at the leading edge. : Elevated perfusion at the leading edge of lesions (most commonly seen in progressive non-IRIS PML) |
